Monster movies don’t come much bigger than Steven Spielberg’s magnificent dinosaur rampage. Despite the film’s age, it was released nearly a quarter of a century ago, its use of effective and seamless CGI has never been equalled. Jaw dropping effects; crackerjack script, with Jeff Goldblum getting all the best lines, ‘how do you know they’re all female? Does somebody go out into the park and pull up the dinosaurs’ skirts?’ A Classic rollicking Spielberg adventure. Witnessing the scuttling terror of the velociraptor’s on a huge screen, with John Williams’s rousing score performed live by a full symphony orchestra, is about as epic as it gets without actually being chased down Broad Street by a real hungry Tyrannosaurus Rex.
Sun 23 Sep 2pm at The Symphony Hall, Broad St, Birmingham B1 2EA £42.50-£62.50 www.thsh.co.uk
